Abstract
DR. PRICE has been for some years the Director of the Joint Board of Sanitary Control in the mantle, costume, and blouse industries in the United States, a new experiment in the sanitary control of an industry by organised employers, organised workers, and representatives of the public. He was also director of the investigations of the New York State Factory Commission in 1912 and 1913, and his previous experience as a sanitary inspector and as practitioner in a crowded section of the East End of New York entitles him to speak with authority on the close relation between factory conditions and industrial health. His book is one which should especially commend itself to employers, his clear style and practical knowledge enabling him to dispense with the technical terms which so frequently deter business men from profiting by scientific studies of health conditions.
